Hi Robert:
Glad you mentioned it! Allium triquetrum is a completely
misunderstood useful plant. It is about one of the very few plants that will
grow happily in the light shade near trees. The sight of many plants of it
in flower in a "wood" is spring is lovely. Of course it is a rampant invader
in the well amended beds we grow most of our treasures in but it is up to us
to use our ingenuity to compensate its ultra vigour with harsh environmental
conditions. Besides, the clumps are very easy to remove once the flowers are
over. Not recommended to try this once the seed is ripe!
All the best
Alberto
